Siglent and Instek Oscilloscopes

Hi,

I have 3 scopes that are surplus to requirements. They are in N London. Collection in person would be preferred, as I can demo them to you there and then. They can be sent via DHL and will be properly packed. BACS is preferrable, but I can take Paypal friends-and-family (the prices are discounted, so it's not worth selling if I have to give an extra 5% to Paypal).

The Siglent scopes have their original probes.

The Instek has a pair of non-original, but perfectly functional probes (one of them is 200Mhz - not sure of other, but they calibrate nicely and give a sharp square)

Siglent SDS 1102DL = SOLD

This is unused. Still has protective sticker on screen.

A link comparing it to a similar Owon: https://scopechart.com/compare/owon-sds7072e-sds7072e-15,siglent-sds1102x-sds1102x-4

Ebay search suggest the 1102 fetches around £160

Siglent SDS 1202X-E = £160 GBP

This would be absolutely mint, apart from a couple of very slight 'spider web' marks that can only be seen if you front-light the screen. They can't be seen in normal use, but have been highlighted for transparency here. I suspect they are behind the screen, not on its surface. I am guessing it would be easy to change the front plastic as it attaches with a bezel, but I doubt you would be bothered to as you won't see the marks unless you light scope from the front. It could be a manufacturing defect for all I know.

An Ebay search suggests that the 1202X-E typically fetches £200 GBP:

Instek GDS-1072-U = £175 GBP

This one still has the protective stickers on the front panel. The screen is unmarked. I'd describe condition as spotless / ex-demo condition. It still has its 'Lifetime Guarantee' sticker and was made in Taiwan (newer Instek gear is made in China). I suspect this is probably one of the most reliable modern scopes you will find at any price (it was bought as a stand-in for my way more expensive Tek when it went wrong...). I doubt many Teks will rival this thing for reliability. This is the scope I might regret selling, as it's so dependable.

I can't seem to find a comparable Instek in sold Ebay listings, other than ones at silly prices.

All scopes are currently in North London. Collection is preferred, but they can be posted on next-day DHL for £10.77

Siglent SDS 1102DL is now sold - thanks to diyaudio.com!

The 200Mhz Siglent is still available.

I also have a pair of Tek 7000 mainframes that ought to be sold:.

7704 (4 of the usual modules inc. 2 x Timebase)

7623 (mainframe itself is tatty and probably best as a parts machine, but it has the 7L12 spectrum analyser in perfect condition, so is desirable for this reason)

Neither of the Teks have been powered in years and I do not intend to power them without replacing the tants. If there is some interest, I can post photos next week.
